In this episode, Linda talks about the incredible life of her father, who served in the Second World War before he disappeared, as well as the changing opportunities for her grandchildren today and the importance of ‘neighbouring’ in the local community. 

Salfordians: The people make the city

2026 marks 100 years since Salford was officially granted city status, and Art with Heart on a mission to capture what it truly means to be from Salford, putting Salfordians firmly at the heart of the centenary celebrations. To celebrate Salford’s big birthday, we teamed up with local artists and communities across the city to create a brand-new podcast.
